Then the student can keep a string in the classroom and see how many beads they can earn each day.ģ) You can put the icon of what the student is earning over the ribbon!Ĥ) Or you can put the reward activity in the last pill box so it’s a surprise to the student when they finish their work! One thing I hope to do in the future is put a bead in each compartment for classroom use. You can also put small items like stickers and beads in there as well. I plan on putting pom poms in the boxes and having my students each pom poms to glue on do a dot pages. This activity can be modified in SO many ways, which is why it is great!ġ) You can make the reward strip longer and use a bigger/longer pill box (see some of the longer strips/bigger pill box in the picture of all the supplies).Ģ) You can fill the boxes with other things. This continued until the reward strip was full. writing) in the pill box to indicate the activity is all done. I told my students that they needed to finish each task and fill up their reward strip to earn painting time at the end of the session! They were excited to get to work.Īfter each activity, the student opens the pill box, puts the nickel on their reward strip, and puts the icon (e.g. Inside each compartment was a fake nickel with Velcro on the back.


Next, I put the icons on the pill box like a visual schedule. Then, I put rough Velcro on the icons and the fake money (I used only the nickels). I put a soft piece of Velcro on each box of a pill box, and the reward strip. Many are classroom related for carryover. You can see some of the icons I printed in the picture below. To make the reward strips, I put 3 empty boxes and then a fourth with a ribbon in it, indicating they had earned a reward. I used Boardmaker and made the icons 1 inch. She loves using “her boxes”!įirst, I purchased/printed all of the materials in the picture below. I needed some sort of motivational visual schedule! Below is what I came up with, and I can tell you it was a HUGE hit. If the teacher didn’t tell her each step of a process, or what to do next, the student would sit there or get into things! Additionally, her classroom teacher had concerns about her task completion skills. She was very smart, but wasn’t really interested in stickers or other rewards I use for the other students. This idea began when I began working with a very hard to motivate student. The title says it all! I am so excited to share this idea with you all! **This post contains Amazon Affiliate links for your convenience**
